I know what they say
‘It’s not who you think you are that holds you back,
it’s who you think you’re not’

It holds me back like the fire that lines the tracks

Hiranya, I wish I… could at least be
your friend, the one who is loved
And one who loves in return,
To stay true and will hold each other up above


You are beautiful as the sun
The moon, and the stars all together
I hope that you know.
And you bring me into the clouds of ether


She strummed a chord on my heartstrings
Without her even knowing
What if she would happen to know?
Would it also pluck on her heartstrings?
